Photographer's Note

Today, the church is ornated of portraits and graves of the Nation’s heroes. This was established as the National Pantheon in 1958 by the dictator Trujillo.

Here it’s a close-up of the top front wall of the church with its bells taken at sunrise, the 1st day we arrived in Santo Domingo while walking around in the colonial area. I did love a lot the sun reflection on this particular stone.

I would LOVE to go back to the Dominican Republic. The last (and only) time i was there i got such a bad flue that they were about to ship me off to the States for treatment. Not much seight seeing for me :(.

Your picture is beautifull. I especially like the moon and the contrast between teh blue sky and brownish building.

I like your subject, and the angle and lighting, but for some reason I think your inclusion of the moon in that position makes this photo. Eyes follow the sweep up the left or right side, and boom, there it is.

Beautiful shot. The lighting is perfect. The textures are really great. It looks so rough and worn. The angle the facade cuts across the photo is great and the moon above it is all perfect. Very clear. Very nicely composed. Great job.
